Rebinding DUNE - Part 2 - Rescuing A Vintage Book: Custom Endpapers, Backing & Covers

[@fastradioburst253]

One hundred years from now and more, long after we're all gone, this book will likely still be in someone's library, bringing great joy. Looking forward to your next installment in its making.

this book is an investment piece. It'll be setting in a collectors library hundreds of years from now, slowly inflating in value.

Because 30 minutes is going to replace endless hours of stuff on Netflix? Also, you can't go between both?

We are all dying for part 3 brother

[@janzander459]

I just came back 3 weeks after watching this video because I wanted to post this!!

[@milatdesign9062]

I've been checking every week since part 2, love these comments haha

[@FourKeysBookArts]

Should be this week. Hang in there.

[@CudpudQC]

@@FourKeysBookArts very excited, thanks for the reply my friend!

[@CannedMan]

This is like watching good, old fashioned television where you’re really, really excited for the next episode - and you have to _wait_ for it to be broadcast. As the episode was about to end, my mind went ‘Noooo, but I want to watch more!’ You have such a comforting, pleasant voice and the pacing of your videos is just top notch. Thank you!

[@Doxymeister]

I completely agree!

[@lucymortlock279]

I shouted at the TV 😂 can't wait for the next one.

[@paulinemegson8519]

The beauty of marbling is that not only can it be used to print unique and gorgeous paper designs, it can also be used to print fabrics in particular silk to create lovely textiles, and can even be used, with variations in the depth of the size bath, to paint 3D items too

[@FourKeysBookArts]

Absolutely! I haven’t done much textile marbling, though I have experimented with ceramics and leather. It’s a really versatile medium.

[@KalkidantamiratKal]

Video! video! About cutting book

[@jcortese3300]

This is looking like another heirloom -- the whole thing is gorgeous, but those endpapers are perfection for this particular book.

[@ayragon]

Anyone else hear the signatures sighing in relief as this book gets new life?

[@alfredopiacentini7471]

I can't help but think, "this book sure feels super lucky!"

[@MrQwint22]

Beautiful work! The marbled end papers could not be better chosen!

[@FourKeysBookArts]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@toddtaylor4649]

Inspired me??? Heck my own cast iron book press arrived today!!!! Denise i have watched a few other binders out there but YOU sir, instruct thoroughly, and cut NO corners. I had no idea that you created your own end papers as well. So lovely. Lemme buy you a cup of joe.

[@FourKeysBookArts]

Thank you so much, I truly appreciate it! Welcome to the craft!

[@oxfordbags]

This is the Dune Part 2 I’ve been waiting for

[@photosyntheticseaslug6028]

Watching someone with such deep knowledge of their craft is always a delight

[@HawkFest]

One Denis creates a film of Dune, the other Denis binds a book of Dune. That's awesome, I've never seen this process before, it's fascinating. Thank you!

[@TheTonyMcD]

Now imagine skinning and processing hundreds of hides to make all of the parchment or vellum and then having to hand write all of those pages. It's no wonder books used to be among the most valuable commodities in the world.

[@Epitymbidia]

Okay, that marbling? With the leather? Gorgeous. Just GORGEOUS! And it so fits the theme. This book is going to be absolutely marvelous and I am consumed by envy. In the best way possible.

[@compunurse]

I’m not exactly sure how the KZbin algorithm sent me to this series, but boy am I glad it did. I have no interest in becoming a book binder, but watching an artist work and understanding how things are put together is something I consider infinitely valuable. Thanks for sharing your skill and passion.

[@Daniel-xg9fm]

I’ve never been so engaged by someone’s raw talent, passion and mastery of their Art. Thanks so much for this series!

[@brettcody76]

I wish I could see it in person! It looks so gorgeous, Dennis. Thank you for sharing your artistry and craftsmanship with us.

[@FourKeysBookArts]

My pleasure!

[@e-artemas7295]

Omg it’s here 😍😍🤩 I’ve been checking your page almost everyday for this video

[@FourKeysBookArts]

Hope you enjoyed it!

Glad I'm not the only one that has been checking for part 2!

[@karsonglancy6244]

[@blazec8756]

This Dune: Part Two is just as good as the Hollywood one

[@milseq]

The marbling design could not have been more perfect!

[@word42069]

Stunning and immaculate per usual! BTW: just noticed you were using a Blackwing pencil. You are truly a man of impeccable taste and a man after my own heart if I’m honest. haha

[@mostlyghostey]

I know complaining about a three-week gap in uploads is incredibly whiny but gosh darn it I am so excited for the next part I’m dying. I hope your next upload is planned soon!!!

[@rjwh67220]

Your end papers are simply gorgeous. The entire process is fascinating, but as a paper marbleizer myself, I’m particularly impressed by the end papers.

[@1certain]

That sand dune paper marbling is crazy!

[@annamuench8429]

That marbled paper is gorgeous! This book is going to be beautiful!

[@MrStreetninja007]

Who knew i needed this in my life at 10:48pm at night

[@federicoprice2687]

Hi Dennis, that's so impressive, and absolutely brilliant!! I watched parts 1 and 2 straight off....and it's now 3am in the UK. Looking forward to part 3! Best regards!!

[@GrmDark]

You simply cannot find this much dedication anywhere in life any more. Fantastic, exquisite work sir!

[@gerrys4822]

Dry-fitting the cover boards reminds me of mortise and tendon joinery! 😉👍🏻 Brilliant! SO MUCH to learn here. Very complex process and lengthy process. You could fill an entire book just on how to MAKE or restore a book! But the video is much better. Seeing it actually done in real time is AMAZING?

[@WiKiTWoNKa]

I can't find part 3, that must mean that you have not uploaded it yet, I hope you upload it soon I am so anxious 😮🙏🏼😱😁💓

[@justincase8281]

Great narration, engaging content, and wonderful filming. A masterful video!

[@FourKeysBookArts]

Wow, thank you!

[@gjn711825]

I havent had the privilage of reading Dune. I used to watch the original film a lot as a kid. Seeing you bind this beautiful book makes me want to pick up a copy! Thank you for sharing your amazing process :)

I just finished the third book, and I get why it's such a revered series that so many things get ideas from. Loving this project

[@FourKeysBookArts]

Thank you so much!!

[@CMon_Jack]

You have to watch this whole video purely out of respect for this guys dedication to perfection.

[@AudreyAzura]

I discovered this channel with the medieval book binding and it made me want to start learning the art. Thanks to your book binding basics, I made my first leaflet a few weeks ago and I loved every step! Now, following the making of this book inspires me once more. Thank you so much for sharing such beautiful creation and inspiring us all!

[@elin_lyze]

I have been waiting for this one! This will be a good saturday watch ❤ PS: It was a good watch! I love the absolute attention to detail, be it in the work or the creation of the video and commentary.

[@ashleydoran5896]

omg I cant wait for part 3!!!

[@RomantiCynic]

Very excited to see the next steps. The medieval book series was super, the D&D makeover was awe-inspiring, and this one is shaping up to surpass them both! Be careful about constantly raising the bar, Dennis 😆

[@r4dioactif]

Dennis, thank you for your care and time in producing this video, painstakingly documenting your process. I appreciate having a resource like yours in which I can be instructed when I take up my own bookbinding hobby.

[@FourKeysBookArts]

My pleasure!

[@TorieKidd]

F Yeah, you will see me for part 3! I'll be watching everything else on your channel in the meantime. ❤

[@cazkiwinz4300]

I love watching people who love what they do 🫶 Also, if you put some 3M hooks on your steel ruler, you’ll find it easier and firmer to hold… and keep your fingers safely out of the way… I do it on my quilting rulers!

[@AdamsOlympia]

I love getting this inside look at an ancient craft, which remains true to form and unchanging after centuries of practice! KZbin algorithms have truly blessed me this week! I started out watching a single video of a carpenters unique furniture designs, which led me into a rabbit hole of many other disparate artisan professions recommended in my feed.

[@guyloren]

Dennis,this was a truly incredible labour of love to witness- thank you for sharing your process,sir!🏆

[@garetkonigsfeld2]

Paper marbling is one of the neatest parts of a book binding. They look like prints yet completely hand-made .Really nice job. Thanks for taking us along 👍.

this cover is very complex compared to the others you've shown previously! i like it :D thx for sharing

The difference in texture, colour and sheen after burnishing is wild.

Man, you nailed it with those end papers! They’re perfection! ❤🎉❤🎉

[@eventhorizon853]

Somehow this is making me want to try bookbinding...

[@wlf1673]

My favourite book, ever. It feels like an old friend. My mother loved to read and encouraged me to read as well as sharing her books with me. I first read it in late elementary school, she and I would have long conversations about it, she would explain the parts I didn't understand...which made it all the more fascinating...so many layers. Miss you, Mum.

[@Claythargic]

I worked for my uncle who did player piano restoration, watching this reminds me of those days, watching glue dry. Really really nice to watch a craftsman at work, thank you for the upload!

[@anthonyparkinson4517]

Already craving part three, The wait is torture!

[@twejiddong]

I'm very impressed to see a book binder create his own marbled paper. It must be nice to be able to create a pattern that matches with the book instead of trying to find one in some catalog which probably won't have the perfect match.

[@shmekie]

This is crazy. What a craftsman, what artistry. Glad the algo guided me to your channel.

[@CanineWild]

I cannot overstate how much I enjoy getting to watch you work. Your passion and artistry are phenomenal, your vids beautifully shot, and with the voiceover explaining the process, just *chef's kiss* The leather joint against that marbled endpapers is going to look SO good!

[@kraftyiam]

Howdy, after Part 1 Rebinding I now want to see Dune part one again ... Wonderful video - clear and concise instructions - love it. Thank you. I agree these end papers are perfect.

[@Warui88]

If I had the skills and tools, I'd have fun rebinding some of my childhood favorites.

[@icychill105]

I've gotten so much more enjoyment watching this, to me the book is dryer than the desert world it's set in.

[@puregrymra6359]

This is my favourite way to REALLY wind down. Grab a nice cup of tea, get a blanket and snuggle up on the couch watching an old book being rebound. Love the videos! Keep up the work ❤

[@fluffysheepfallingasleep609]

I love those custom marble end papers! That pattern is perfect for Dune

[@LithNeo]

You could teach a master class on how to rebind books, this is such a cool thing to do and help keeping this knowledge alive. Loved the DnD Tome and this is such a cool rebinding!

[@timleadbetter252]

Even on camera the burnishing really brings out the colour on your paper! Incredible piece of craftsmanship thank you for sharing your work!

[@purpleheart3431]

This was such a treat to watch! I LOVE Dune (hence why this popped up in my recommended) and the craftsmanship is stellar. To own a book so loved, it would be my prized possession❤

[@TheDamian418]
